Faeries of the Faultlines
Product ID: 337333718
Iris Compiet is the rarest of artist: That who invokes a complete and cohesive reality with every image she creates. Beautiful, powerful and contemplative all at once. ― Guillermo Del Toro Let me tell you about Faeries, let me take you away on a journey, an adventure.The Faultlines is an ancient name given to those places where the veil between this world and the Other is thinnest. It is the place where faeries dwell, creatures creep, and magic oozes through the cracks. Recently the Faultlines have been stirring, opening up to all who wish to see, and to all who dare to venture... Faeries of the Faultlines was an instant Kickstarter success in 2017, and this edited, expanded edition includes the complete original documentation from the greenmen to mermaids, with expanded sections and many more faeries to meet! “Iris Compiet’s work is an astonishing and masterful revelation of the Faery Realms. She is an artist who, with stunning alacrity, reveals the fleeting personalities of the normally unseen.” ―Brian Froud “Iris summons and draws upon the forces that are necessary in giving life to such creatures―imagination, an intelligent curiosity, and a relentless energy. The Faeries are lucky to have her!" ―Alan Lee "I have known Iris for many years. I have watched her find her voice. I am enchanted by her vision." ―John Howe

Wonderful Faery Book with Beautiful Art
This is a really great book, in the tradition of Faery books associated with Brian Froud. As a fan of Froud's books, it's hard not to compare her work with his. I find Iris Compiet's work to be equally compelling and beautiful to look at. She captures a similar feeling in her work, full of life and energy, combining dynamic sketchy line work and watercolor. I recommend this book to anyone who loves faeries, fantasy art, mythology, animistic lore, and nature.

Beautiful book reminiscent of Brian Frouds style of artwork. It is full of beautiful details and a joy to flip through. Bought as a gift but so lovely that I am considering buying one myself.
